Correct Answer - Option 5 : Retail Payments

  • The Reserve Bank had announced the opening of the first cohort under Regulatory Sandbox with "Retail Payments" as its theme with two entities- eRupaya and PaySe.
  • The Reserve Bank received applications from 32 entities of which six have been selected for the ‘Test Phase’.
  • The two entities that have started testing are Natural Support Consultancy Services, Jaipur, and Nucleus Software Exports, New Delhi.
  • A regulatory sandbox is a framework set up by a regulator that allows FinTech startups and other innovators to conduct live experiments in a controlled environment under a regulator's supervision.

  • Natural Support Consultancy Services
    • The product ‘eRupaya’ is a set of Near-Field Communication (NFC) based Prepaid card and NFC enabled Point of Sale (PoS) device, to facilitate offline Person-to-Merchant (P2M) transactions and offline digital payments in remote locations.
  • Nucleus Software Exports
    • The offline digital cash product, 'PaySe', will help connect with rural areas for e-payments.
    • The product proposes to help in the digitization of payments in rural areas, starting with Self Help Groups (SHG), through an offline payment solution and a digitized SHG-centered ecosystem.
  • The RBI made a statement that mobile payments including feature phone-based payment services, offline payment solutions, and contactless payment would be considered under the sandbox structure.
  • The idea behind RBI's statement is to spur innovation in the digital payments space and help in offering payment services to the unserved and underserved segment of the population.
